2016 Can-Am Renegade 1000 & Commander Max
Can-Am's 2016 line is shaping up to be pretty impressive and includes an all-new, ultra-aggressive, 89-hp Can-Am Renegade X mr 1000R model:

I guess everyone just has to have their dedicated mud machines. I would have thought that the Outlander would have been enough but no Can-Am had to make a Renegade XMR. It probably doesn't ride as bad as it looks but those tires on anything other than mud will probably have the rider checking every few hundred feet to make sure they aren't flat as they will thump thump their way down the trail. And still no rear rack. At least the Scrambler models have racks, even if they are tiny. On this type of quad, it makes sense to include at least a smaller rear rack. It basically has no way to haul anything. I think an XT package like on the Outlander with slightly more aggressive tires than stock, beefier bumpers, a rear rack and winch would be a much better package for the Renegade. It would give the Renegade enough utility to get more people to choose it over the Outlander that normally wouldn't even consider it.

I think you are missing a lot going on here guys. First of all, the tires are not the same monster tires you find on the Outlander version of the XMR. So ride isn't going to be as harsh for one thing. Secondly, for those in the know, the X MR versions have a stronger rear Differential... MUCH stronger. That is true for both the Outlander based models and the Renegades. Also the X-MR based Renegade has a whole different mapping in the computer, that maximizes torque and gearing is a little lower as well. One of the things I have been seeing a lot of guys do with these is to put a tall but less aggressive tire on them, and are really raving about the end result. Best of both worlds, stronger components, and smoother ride on your average trail.
And no I don't have one, nor do I work for BRP. But I did sleep in a Holiday Inn once....

I had a Scrambler 500 4x4 before and it had the optional rear rack. The only thing I ever hauled on it was a cooler. If nothing else, a rear rack gives you something solid to push on if you get stuck lol. A Renegade is more of a sport-utility. A sport quad is like a sports car, made to go fast. A 4x4 utility is more like a 4x4 truck. The Renegade is more like a high performance suv, like a Land Rover, Mercedes or BMW. Speed combined with ability.

The Scrambler was the first to try to bridge the gap. I didn't care for the original one. Uncomfortable ride to say the least. But, I have nerve damage in my back. The Wolverine was a good attempt to, but underpowered to me. Renegade was a home run for Can-Am. Very sporty, light handling ride even with the extra weight of the 4wd system. Then new Scrambler looks to me that it is a good mix too. Son is thinking of picking one up.
